2 years tomorrow

Dear all

I would like to post a message to mention my dear Dad who passed away 2 years ago tomorrow from CUP (cancer unknown primary) somewhere in the gall bladder / liver region. 

When my dad passed away I discovered this site and found it a little comforting that there was sadly many people in the same situation as me and others that were further down the grieving path, I used to read these, especially the entry’s from relatives/ friends who were 1-2 years down the line and never ever thought that what I read was actually true, along the lines of, “ gets easier, start thinking of happier times, life goes on but in a different way” and I used to think NEVER, but I have to say it does and it does get easier and you do think of your loved one who has passed in a different kind of way and not always sad, may be it is acceptance and appreciation of the life you did have with them and there is no time limit to any thing or feelings.

i often think my dad is with me, especially when I have a problem or solution to solve in my head and can sometimes hear him, also do strongly feel he is still around when I go to my mums, to me that is what I believe and that makes me happy. 

I will be going to the crematorium tomorrow to read his entry in the book and taking my mum for a curry as my dad loved having a curry. 

I have and will continue to love my dad dearly until I eventually go upstairs, for now he will remain strongly in my mind and heart ️
